Pérez-Fabello, María José Tourist Maps You-are-here maps Wayfinding Planos turísticos Mapas Tú-estás-aquí Orientación Tourist information signs are essential to facilitate walking trough the city. They also allow visitors and citizens improve their knowledge of the city. The design of these information signs must consider aesthetics aspects, as well as other concepts that would make them easier to understand, such as shape, location, orientation, and content. This paper analyzes how these concepts are applied in the case of London, where a complete wayfinding system has been designed. This Legible London System integrates the concepts of “wayfinding” (signals design), “you are-here maps” (you-are-here maps design), and “cognitive maps” (mental maps that people have in their heads and help them to know how a particular space is). Los paneles de información turística son fundamentales para facilitar los desplazamientos por la ciudad, y permiten mejorar el conocimiento de la misma, tanto a visitantes como a sus ciudadanos. El diseño de estos paneles, además de preocuparse por la calidad estética, debe contemplar una serie de conceptos que facilitan su comprensión y afectan a su forma, localización, orientación, y contenido. Este trabajo analiza cómo se aplican estos conceptos en el caso de la ciudad de Londres, en la que se ha diseñado un completo sistema de señalización que integra los conceptos del “wayfinding” (diseño de señales e indicación de direcciones), “you-are-here maps” (diseño de planos tú-estás aquí), y “cognitive maps” (mapas mentales o cognitivos que las personas tienen en su cabeza y les permite saber cómo es un espacio concreto).
